Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0236833A2] The method consists in evaluating the shift applied to a certain number x of successive lines of the encryption cycle, then in looking up in a table the unique encryption code which, at this position of the cycle, gives the sequence found for the x shift values. In order to analyse the shift in each of these x lines, the method consists in firstly evaluating the relative shift of each of the x-1 lines in relation to the first, by studying the relative shift of a given brightness transition present in all of these x lines and which, before encryption, reflects a detail vertical to the picture, then, secondly, in evaluating the absolute shift of each of these x lines by comparison with a line from the x to which a minimum shift has been applied on encryption.
